Showtime magazine tells the detailed story of how Salman Khan set up Shahrukh Khan for attack at Katrin's party

Finally a magazine has come out with the full story of what happened between Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan at Katrina Kaif's birthday party and once you see all the details it is very clear that Salman Khan is completely to blame. He phoned SRK four times begging him to come to the party even though SRK had a knee injury and had been filming all day. Salman wouldn't take no for an answer and as the magazine says he had an agenda and wanted to get SRK to the party only to insult and try to get him into a fight. The article relates what foul language and insults Salman Khan dished out and to who. For all the details on this see the long article in this months Showtime magazine.

Catching up with Shah Rukh Khan as he nurses a back injury
by Ramachandran Srinivasan



Shah Rukh Khan's hurt his back again and as he sat at home, he spoke at length about his health problem, and his life and times in general.

Excerpts…You have hurt your back again?Yes, I am not doing too well. I am currently bed ridden as you can see. I forget I am 43 and I tried to do a fight scene and got hurt very badly. I hurt my back and my neck. The doctor is coming every two hours to check my state and monitor me closely.

You are still going on and on… aren't you scared of a burnout?I truly believe that even after so many years I feel like every film is my first and last film. I feel that if this doesn't work out then I won't get another film to work on. So I do it with that desperation, that intensity and that passion. I want to die doing a film. I think I should not be working so hard. But then I have been made to do something which has been written in my destiny and hence I continue working. A lot of my friends tell me, 'We've been telling you for the past 15 years that you'll burn out.' But I feel I will not burn out because I am still very excited to wear make-up. In my life I feel that picture abhi baki hai mere dost. I have not completed the most beautiful film of my life yet and I hope the last shot I give is the best.

You try and give a message through your films… like picture abhi baki hai mere dost…Whenever I produce movies, I always try to give a message. When I was in college I used to play cricket and football and wanted to represent India in the national team. When I injured my back it seemed like the end of my career. For two years I was depressed but that was the reason why I joined the film industry. Once I joined the film industry my life changed for the better. Whatever I am today is only because of what happened then. Like a few years ago both of us - you and me, were young. You wrote something negative about me and I got very angry with you. We fought as you printed something about me because maybe you didn't like me and after which I didn't like you. But now you're making a documentary on me and I feel you must have seen something good in me. In the end we're sitting together after 10 years since that happened. Hence "picture abhi baki hai mere dost". You haven't been giving time to a lot of your friends who are now angry with you?There are those who think that I only work and there are some friends who feel that I don't get the time to meet them. I do 2-3 films and it takes 200 days. I also do around 15 endorsements with an average of 3 days per endorsement, which takes up 50 days. I also manage to do some 20-25 live shows - whether it's the Filmfare awards or the rehearsals, which take about 40 days. I also spend two months on my television shows and their promotions. I take about 1 and ½ months break from work to spend with my kids. So I run short of 70 days in a year and hence I have to work a lot more. In the end, I don't get to meet a lot of people. There are a lot of friends, a lot of people whom I can't give time.

How has your journey been from Deewana to Dard-e-Disco? Actually to tell you the truth, when I think about my journey from theatre to television to where I am today it doesn't seem so long. I was watching ‘Chak De’ right now and it just doesn't feel like it's been two years since we shot the film in Australia. Sometimes the children also pull out old DVDs and tell me 'look at how you used to look before'! Recently I was watching ‘Yes Boss’ because my son felt that I can't do somersaults in the air. So I showed the film to him to because I had done a somersault in it. In the film I had somersaulted into the car like Jackie Chan does in his films. So I showed him that I could do it when I was young. But when I was watching the film it didn't feel like it was a long time ago, it felt like it happened just yesterday or the day before. A few days ago when Juhi (Chawla) had come over with her kids I was just telling her that it doesn't feel like it's been such a long time since we did this film together. I wanted to ask her also if she feels like that.What is the feeling after so many years of work?I'll be a 43-year-old man in few months and I still wear make-up in the morning, so how silly is that? I do a silly job, but well, that's the job I love doing. I adore it.

Do your children like your films?My son's favourite film is ‘Baadshah’. When he watches it he tells me that 'the special effects are really bad, Papa'. So now I have to make a Baadshah that my son will like. You have also acted in remakes of films like Devdas and Don… Trying to prove a point?When I did ‘Devdas’, I wanted to say something to the people but everyone had a different take on it. Some said it was ostentatious while some said I was copying Dilip Kumar, etc. The film belonged to another generation but as an actor it's my duty to bring it to the notice of the people of today. They must know that ‘Devdas’ was a great film. See my ‘Don’ and know what a great actor Amitabh Bachchan was.

A writer has alleged that you lifted his story idea to make Om Shanti Om. Comment.Farah Khan narrated the script of ‘Om Shanti Om’ many years ago when I was shooting for Mani Rathnam's ‘Dil Se’. I did not do the film then. Farah and I then worked on the script of ‘Happy New Year’ with Amitabh Bachchan. But Amitji fell ill and was hospitalised and we knew that film could not be made because Amitji had a lot of scenes in the film. I told Farah to bring over the script of ‘Om Shanti Om’ that she had narrated to me earlier and said that we can make it. So there was no way how we could have taken the script from anyone else as the said person has claimed.Even the Manoj Kumar issue became big and you had to erase a few scenes.Manojji is a veteran film person and we respect everyone from the industry. We will do what he wants as long as it makes him happy. There was no intention to hurt him in the first place.

India Today article about SRK performing at Bhutan cornation

I don't unusually post anything but photos here but this is such an exciting news storey from the very reliable magazine India Today I wanted to post it too. From http://indiatoday.digitaltoday.in/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&&issueid=72&id=15682&sectionid=3&Itemid=1&page=in&latn=2


Bhutan goes Bollywood
Delhi, September 19, 2008

The coronation of Bhutan's new King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuk next month will feature a surprisingly varied cast from India. Led by chief guest President Pratibha Patil, a power-packed delegation to the coronation comprising not merely top political honchos but also Shah Rukh Khan will travel to Thimpu. The Indian delegation will manage a double act of cementing ties with Bhutan and entertaining the new king.

WangchukThe crowning of Wangchuk, 29, who is world's youngest king, will be a special affair with lots of colour and fanfare. While UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi is a special invitee, Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi is also expected to be there along with External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee.
Despite the pageantry and the presence of political heavyweights, the show stealer may well turn out to be a performance by Khan and Bollywood's newest heart-throb Katrina Kaif at Thimpu's new soccer stadium. The king is an avid movie watcher and the performance has been planned at his royal request.
Bhutan is the only country in the world that measures its prosperity by what is known as the gross national happiness. In March, the tiny country of 7,00,000, which acts as a strategic buffer for India, took a giant leap to voluntary democracy, a rare feat for a country ruled by a monarch. The present king's father Jigme Singye Wangchuck spearheaded the change.
The Bhutan Peace and Prosperity Party led by Jigme Y. Thinley swept the polls by a landslide margin. While the king is the head of state, the Parliament holds the right to remove him by a two-thirds majority. Also, a retirement age of 60 has been fixed for the monarch, something a not-so-young prince in London has been waiting for long.
